Last Monday we had a tennis match. As I was talking with the other captain he mentioned he was from Rhodes Island. I said I have only know one person from RI. Well he knew a friend, Henry Brenner. We have made contact and Terry and I will have dinner with Henry and JoAnn next Tuesday. It will be so much fun. I coached with Henry for several years and during that time I was the assist coach, one time ref, bus driver, score keeper and much more. Henry is deaf so I often was his ears and mouth. I have not seen Henry since 1977 when we moved from Devils Lake ND to St. Paul. JoAnn sent me a picture so we would know them! I had thought they have not changed in the last 39 years!
I played tennis yesterday and my back is fine. Terry and I are playing with 3 other couples tomorrow and that should be fun. My team, we only have 2 more matches left so the season goes fast!
As next Tuesday comes close I reflect on the fact that I have been so so bad in keeping in contact with past friends. I guess it is only one of my many faults but I do try, each day, to be a better person.
Enough for now.
